Our original recipe. Classic is a subtle mix of smoked paprika and
basil. Although an unlikely combination, the earthiness of the smoked
paprika blends perfectly with the gentle sweetness of the basil to
create an authentically savoury flavour. Classic
is possibly our most versatile flavour. Perfect for a stunning Sunday Roast with all the trimmings.
It’s great in a stew or casserole, but works equally well with pasta, in wraps or
in a crisp, fresh salad.

Storage & Preparation: Our seitan logs have a
long (30 weeks) shelf life so long as the packaging is intact. Once
opened, wrap the remaining seitan tightly in cling film, keep
refrigerated and use withing 5 days of opening. Alternatively, freeze
the seitan on the day of opening and use within 3 months of freezing.

How to use seitan:Seitan is the most versatile of products and its uses are only limited by your imagination or kitchen skills! Historically meals consist of a protein (seitan, animal products), carbohydrates (vegetables, pasta, rice) and often a sauce or dressing (gravy, ketchup, soy sauce). Seitan is the ideal replacement for animal products offering all of the benefits and none of the negatives which include the cholesterol and saturated fats which can lead to serious illness and of course seitan does not release greenhouse gases of which the livestock sector are a major contributor.

Seitan is a Japanese word which translates to “proper” or “correct” protein. The protein content of seitan is on a par with that of chicken breast at around 30%. It has a higher protein content than pork, eggs, milk, ground beef and fish.

If you are flexitarian or if you are transitioning to a vegan / plant based diet, you can use seitan to create any dishes that you would previously have used animal products. Whether it’s a roast dinner, pasta, a stir fry, a stew or casserole, fried rice or a filling for a sandwich, burrito or jacket potato. It’s ideal in a curry, in lasagna, in pies or pasties, as a pizza topping or as part of a full English breakfast.

It can be fried, baked, grilled, tossed in a salad or even eaten raw out of the pack. The options really are limitless.
